    Winnipeg Free Press https://www.winnipegfreepress.com/sports/hockey/jets/maurice-changes-lines-at-jets-practice- 473698153.html Maurice changes lines at Jets practice By: Mike Sawatzky The Winnipeg Jets may have the NHL's best home record but there's a price to be paid for all that success. "When you're higher in the standings, and we're close to first, you're going to get teams pretty geared up to play you when they come in," said veteran Jets defenceman Ben Chiarot following practice at Bell MTS Place Saturday afternoon. "This is a tough building to play in and when you put where we are in the standings on top of that, teams are going to come out hard. If we're off one night or sleeping to start, we're going to be off on the wrong foot. "And St. Louis was pretty jacked up to play us." The Jets, mostly outplayed by the Blues in a 5-2 loss to St. Louis Friday night, will have another chance to defend home ice Sunday afternoon (2 p.m., TSN3, TSN 1290) when the New York Rangers make their lone visit of the 2017-18 season. Winnipeg was 20-4-2 at home and tied for top spot in the Central Division while the Rangers were three points out of a wild-card playoff spot in the Eastern Conference heading into Saturday's action. On Thursday, Rangers GM Jeff Gorton sent shockwaves through the league when he announced the club was entering a rebuilding phase and warned the club's fans that a sell-off of major assets was probable prior to the Feb.

Highlights from the first part of the year included: • Camp Manitou operating at full capacity during the summer of 2019, while preparing the commencement of construction of a new lodge. • Pre-COVID, the 2019-20 school year saw 2,000 teachers across Manitoba trained to utilize the online-based Project 11 Mental Health Curriculum, available to all teachers and schools at no cost. • The Winnipeg Jets Hockey Academy (WJHA) grew to include 900 student athletes, providing opportunity to learn both sport and life skills from coaches, mentors, and one another. • Dual effort fundraising occurred, operating both tradition fund generating events (described in this report), and initiating a capital campaign required to grow capacity at Camp Manitou. In the midst of this activity, the effects of the COVID global pandemic began in Manitoba quickly in mid-March 2020, and challenged all facets of the TNYF.

  • Jets Prospect Appleton Works on His Shot
    Winnipeg Sun http://www.winnipegsun.com/2017/06/28/jets-prospect-appleton-works-on-his-shot Jets prospect Appleton works on his shot BY KEN WIEBE, WINNIPEG SUN Mason Appleton was tired of hearing about the knock against him, so he decided to do something about it. Chosen by the Winnipeg Jets in the sixth round (168th overall) of the 2015 NHL Draft out of the USHL, Appleton spent the past two seasons with the NCAA Michigan State Spartans. Since he was drafted, Appleton has become an important point producer — thanks to the extra on and off-ice work he has put in on his shot and release. “You kind of get tired of people telling you that you need to have a better shot, a stronger shot, a heavier shot,” Appleton said after finishing up the third day of Jets development camp. “I realized that I needed to put a lot of time into that and work at it hard. Working five, six, seven hours a week on my shot has definitely helped me a lot as a player. “My shot has come a long way. It was definitely a weak part of my game when I got drafted. I wasn’t scoring any first-shot goals, just rebound and garbage goals, which obviously are good goals to score. But scoring those first-shot goals has helped my game tremendously. I’m liking where my game is going.” Not only was Appleton the Spartans’ top point producer (12 goals and 31 points in 35 games) last season, he has grown into a leader and was named captain by new head coach Danton Cole, a former forward with the Jets 1.0 edition.
